There are two minor bugs in nmap_fetchfile() (file
nmap.cc):

1. Location specified in --datadir does not have an
effective precedence over location specified in
$NMAPDIR.

2. Location tested for real UID should be ~/nmap, not
~/.nmap. (Assuming the EUID test and the docs are
correct.)

The attached patches will:

- Correct the two bugs.

- Adjust "if" depth for EUID ~/nmap test to be
consistent with other tests.

- Update description of --datadir in docs/nmap.1 to be
more in line with the code.
